Description
This is a preorder with scheduled release date: 9/16/2026. All sales Final.
Unfold thirty years of Pokémon. The 30th Celebration Poster Collection is built around a large double-sided poster showing images of over 160 cards from the anniversary expansion, bundled with the Kanto legendary birds as foil promos and three booster packs.
What's in the collection
- 3 foil promo cards featuring Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres
- 1 double-sided poster, 26.875" x 39"
- 3 Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration booster packs (cards vary by pack)
About the 30th Celebration set
The Pokémon TCG launched in Japan in October 1996. 30th Celebration marks the anniversary as a commemorative set rather than a main-series expansion — closer in spirit to Celebrations in 2021 — and it's the first Pokémon TCG set to release simultaneously worldwide across English, Japanese and Simplified Chinese.
- Every card in the set is foil
- 30 different Pikachu cards, each by a different illustrator with its own holofoil pattern — one guaranteed per pack
- A new rarity, Futuristic Rare, illustrated by YOSHIROTTEN, headlined by Mewtwo ex and Mew ex
- 30 classic reprints from Base Set through modern, each carrying a "30" Pikachu stamp
- Each pack contains 5 foil cards, 1 foil Basic Energy and 1 TCG Live code card
Why this one over the smaller collections
The poster is the draw. At nearly 27 by 39 inches and printed on both sides it's a display piece in its own right, and the three legendary bird promos are the only place in the anniversary lineup you'll find Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres together. You also get three packs rather than two. If you want the cheaper entry point instead, see the 30th Celebration Knock Out Collection.
